[Solved] Home,Menu,Back,Search keys do not vibrate anymore

My Home,Menu,Back,Search keys do not vibrate anymore. They where working before I discharged my battery until my phone turned off. They turn off normally when my battery gets below 30%(Power Saver). But this time they have not come back on after charging my phone to 100% with the phone off. My phone vibrates when I type a text message or unlock my phone.
I have not restarted my phone yet because I'm trying to calibrate my battery. I did not charge it enough the first time.
Solved: By Restarted the phone.

The first logical thing to do would be to restart your phone.

You're correct but I wanted to make sure there was not a unique setting for controlling the vibration of the Keys before I messed up my battery calibration.

In the sound settings there is a setting that says Vibrate Feedback.. see if its disabled.

Vibrate feedback under Feedback is Enabled. I even disabled it and then enabled it but it did not fit it.
Thank you for your help.
Will restarting my phone without fulling discharging the battery mess up the calibration process?

I restarted my phone and and it fixed the problem.
I guess I'll just try and recalibrate the battery another time.

Charged to 100%. Then Discharged it until the phone turns it self off then charged it over night while the phone is still off then turn it on in this morning. But I don't think I let it charge at 100% long enough.

u should never let ur battery get to low,,, keep it charged... leave it alone for awhile..

Did someone find a solution to this? A friend of mine's One S had exactly the same issue..Also recharged for something like 5-6 hours but never turned on again..suggestions?

Only thing you can try is to boot into 'Fastboot' and try reboot from there, not saying it will work but worth a try cuz mine did the same thing 2 days ago and mine was cuz battery dropped lower than 2% while messing around on computer

Are you using cwm recovery? If so boot into fastboot and flash twrp. There is a bug with cwm that won't boot the phone while the battery is dead...the led light just flashes and occasionally you will get the screen flash. Unplug the phone from charger and pc, hold volume down + power to enter bootloader then plug into pc to fastboot the twrp recovery.

I had the same problem a loooooooooooooong time ago. Plug it in, wait for it to have a solid orange LED. Then try to power it on. If that doesn't work, give it a couple more minutes then do a soft reset. If that doesn't work, then you, sir, have a very plush paperweight.

I just googled to see if the One S had any other LED colours except for green, orange and amber, because I would like to customise them as well, and I saw this thread on the results. Sadly, green, orange and amber is my lot

I mean... Come on, even though RIM/BlackBerry are in millions of pounds in the red they still fit 16,000,000 colour LEDs. We as HTC users are stuck with three.

I have changed my battery with the battery of the One X+ of 2100 mah, if you read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1888741 many people have succesfully done this, anyway in my case the battery was completly discharged ( zero power ) and when I plug the phone to the charged I got this exact situation: orange blinking led with the screen flashing sometimes. I can enter inside fastboot with the charget pluged it but I cannot start the device. I have left the phone connected to the charger for a lot of hours but it doesn't charge. What can I do?

[Q]Help, phone won't turn on. Red light flash.

I just noticed my phone last week and it wouldn't turn on. Occasionally after I take out the battery, put it back in and press the on button it'll flash the red led on the top once, and then it doesn't do it again. I don't know what to do, can someone help me? Do I have to call warranty?
I can't get to bootscreen or recovery or anything, no power. Tried it on computer usb and the power adapter.

Try changing your battery.....! Mayb its dead!

Those batteries cost half as much as a new system
It's a gamble, I might try buying a new one and seeing if the battery swap will help.

Or if u still have warranty, first go to service centre!! They'll tell the issue

Heat your battery with your hands firs, or something like that(don't get it in the oven). Maybe will help.

I rooted with htc website so I don't think I still have warranty
Nobody on google seems to know the answer to the problem.
I'm currently heating it with body heat but I dont think it'll work.

Try charging your battery first with All-Battery charger or something similar and then try switching your phone on! Charge atleast for and hour or so!

It has been charging for 2 days with no signs of coming on.
Can anyone confirm for me if HTC Explorer will turn on without a battery in, if it's connected to USB?

Thanks for help, I don't have access to another battery at the moment. I'm seeing what I can do about buying another phone, if I can fix this one I'll just sell it again.

Well it was just in the normal startup, I was running nextgen. I didn't actually see it die, just picked it up one day. I used the HTC website to root it.

[SOLVED][Q] HTC Sensation won't turn on

On Monday night I used the Juopunut bear S-OFF method successfully and then installed ClockworkMod Recovery and Cyanogen Mod 10. It was working like a dream I absolutely loved it. I restarted it many times etc and it worked completely fine, I had zero issues. However last night, I turned the phone off and then plugged it in to charge. When I woke up this morning I cannot turn it on, no matter what I do. When I plug it in to the charger the orange light turns on for about 1 second and then turns off. Is my phone bricked? Is my battery dead? Thanks in advance

try to boot into bootloader
if it enters then it is not bricked
and try this
remove battery,sim and sdcard and charge the device as it is for 5-6 hours
put them back and switch the device on
best wishes

I'm pretty sure it's not bricked. I've left it plugged in to my pc and the charing light is now flashing! I have hope that it will be ok How can you charge the phone without the battery?

the device itself has a little energy stored in case when the battery is fully uncharged
ok then if the led is showing red now boot to bootloader and select reboot
see how it goes

It's blinking orange every second, not completely charging. Should I just let it do that for 10 or 20 min? This is with the battery in btw

yeap leave it for a while

It works!
After letting it charge for about 20min while the orange led blinked on and off every second I unplugged it, held down the power button, and the beautiful HTC logo illuminated across my screen. I'm now up and running and the device is charging. I'm very glad I didn't buy a new battery for $40. I'm hoping this will never happen again but if it does I won't be alarmed. If anyone out there is having a similar issue do not fret!

Problems with HTC Sensation
My HTC Sensation has become unusable due to faults that have recently developed. I sent it off to HTC but apparently it has 'water damage' even though I've always been incredibly careful with it and never dropped it in a puddle or anything.
I'm new to this website so I'm not sure how to go about getting advice.
If someone could help me on how to get some answers it would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

I dropped my mobile in water, dried it with hair dryer left it fir a week and then it started again.

Man !!!! This is obvious.
When your Battery is toooooooo low then phone can't boot, so orange light blinks means Battery is collecting some power to boot at least. It will take 2-3 minutes, then orange light will get stable. Means now you can boot your device.
This is NORMAL !!!

I know its normal but i charged it for 2 hours and the mobile wasnt charging at all , thats why I posted on XDA .
BTW rebooting from the bootloader seems to have done the trick and now the mobile is working perfectly fine.

You can also boot in recovery and clear your battery stats then make two cycles charging/full discharging, as the charging time is 8h+
